The biggest record of the season, as to the
quantity of the weed sold, was made Tues
day. On Monday evening the wagons be-
gan to pour in in perfect deluge. They
continued to arrive all through the after
noon and late into the night, and before
morning they were packed in the cause-ways
of some of the ware houses, four abreast,
while number were forced to remain out
side, not being able to find room under the
shelter. The sight on entering one of the
ware houses was perfectly bewildering. The
spacious floors were piled as thick and close
as it was possible to place the piles. and in
some instances had to be placed out in the
causeway, the warehouse floor not being
large enough to accommodate it. Double
sales had to be run in order to get through.
The price, though not as good as some ex-
pected, was fair under the circumstances, as
high prices could hardly be expected with
the market 30 flooded.
The sales Wednesday were larger than
those Tuesday. On Wednesday there were
estimated, to be four hundred wagons in
town.

Winston to have Gas aud Electric Lights.
Messrs. J. G. Buxton and Jas. A. Gray,
representing themselves and the city, sub
mitted a proposition to- the Board of Com
missieners on Monday night, looking to the
establishment of a Gas and Electric Light
Company, which, if accepted by our City
Council, will insure the 'inrrsediate forma-
ton of company controlled by our own
citizens, and which will supply long felt
want and aid in continuing our wide awake
city in its progressive march.
We trust our Board will encourage a
move which fayors an improvement too
much needed to require any demonstration
With Greensboro and Salisbury and other
towns no larger Illuminated by gas, and
Charlotte and Raleigh lighted by electricity,
it certainly is not to be supposed that Win
ston is so far behind them in public spirit
and enterprise as to let the town go longer
without being properly lighted.

plastered his nose. He had to lie in

tleness. His mothers touch was 80
soft that it soothed his pain. His
fathers hand rested SO lightly upon
him that it never hurt him. And his
brothers and sisters. sorry for his suf-
fering. set him a beautiful example.
He had time to think. and he thought
to some purpose; for when he again
grew well ard strong there was great
change manifested in him. He had
been taught how to use his hands. and

confidence. Any uncertainty on the
part Of the rider is detected very quickly
by the horse. and the latter will refuse
the jump. The rider must not pull on
the reins while sning over. but must
let the horse have his head. II you
:: IRE jumping over bar and somebody
should pull your head back or to one
side just as you left the ground. you
would be likely to lose your balance
and fall. 1t is just the same with a
horse.
Clearly it is an error to look upon
riding after hounds as a spiritless sport.
1t requires nerve and good horseman-
ship. and is very healthful exercise.
To ride well and be able to take Long
Island rail fences man must keep him
self in pretty good condition. Late
hours and dissipation. any thing that
tends to disturb the nerves. must be
avoided. 1t seems to me much more
sensible form Of amusement than loiter-
ing about in club and drinking all day
long. 1t takes the young men out of
doors. where they breathe pure air, and
the excitement is only of the kind that
is good for healthy man. There is
some danger Of course. but it is in hu-
man nature to crave certain amount
of that. There is danger in yacht
ing. shooting. playing polo. and many
other sports. Perhaps there is more
danger in riding at fences and scurry-
ing across country, but it educates one 5
nerves and develops courage. The
presence or absence Of the wild fox
makes no difference in the sport. The
riding is just the same. the fences just
as high. and the danger as great in one
case as in the other. The hounds run
on the anise scent the same as they do
after the fox, and much of the amuse-
ment and interest consists in watching
them and studying their ways. II it
were not for the necessity Of keeping
the hounds keen and interested it would
be better not to run fox at the end.
The object Of fox-hunting is not so
much the killing Of fox as it is the
riding after hounds over fields and
fences.-NeU York Cor. of Chicago Trit-
Une.
